Some major names, such as Oracle, Orange and Microsoft have set up captive operations in Cairo, while major IT outsourcers such as IBM and EDS (HP) have had a presence there for many years. The country has remained largely under the radar up until relatively recently – but the industry body ITIDA (Information Technology Industry Development Agency) is hoping to turn the country into a major destination for IT and BPO services, through its “EgyptOn” programme. • There is strong government support for the outsourcing industry in Egypt • Egypt has excellent low cost language skills, especially English • There is high availability of suitable graduates with language skills • Egypt lacks experience in managing complex high level BPO and ITO work Global Delivery Locations - Focus on Egypt (Analyst Insight) BFTC2326/ Published 03/2009 © Datamonitor.
